Is God’s eternal and unchangeable name “Yahweh”?

Bible: Yes       Qur'an: No

Exodus 3:15 – The LORD (YAHWEH) God (Elohim) of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me to you; this is my name forever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

Isaiah 26:4 – Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH (Yah Yahweh) is everlasting strength.

John 8:58 – 58. Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.


Al-A'raf 7:180 – Allah's are the most beautiful names; so call on him by them! And leave the company of those who blaspheme His names.

Al-Isra 17:110 – Say: "Call upon Allah... to Him belong the most beautiful names.”

Note: God’s special and eternal name “Yahweh” is used 6,823 times in the Bible but is not found at all among the 99 names of God (Esmaul-Husna) in the Quran. Cf. Taha 20:8, Rahman 55:78 & Hashr 59:24.
